Sexual harassment claims increasingly expose your organization to significant business, financial, and human resources related costs and liabilities.  Potential claims now often exceed six-figure numbers. More importantly, sexual harassment increases recruitment and hiring costs, increases absenteeism and turnover costs, lowers employee morale, reduces job performance, and results in lost productivity.  As a result, if your company has a 6% profit margin, it will have to generate $1,667,000 in new sales to cover the costs of each sexual harassment claim or award of $100,000.   

Why Should You Attend:

While the financial liabilities of sexual harassment can be substantial, they represent only a part of the total cost. To the extent sexual harassment defines how your organization values its employees, your organization increasingly becomes a place to avoid. To the extent your organization accepts of sexual harassment as an incidental working condition, you tell employees, applicants, and third parties: you don’t value them.  And to the extent your organization does not take immediate action to correct problems, you demonstrate that employees should look for employment elsewhere.  

As a result, the marketplace is increasingly asking and evaluating the following critical questions:

• Does the organization avoid the growing legal pitfalls to avoid sexual harassment? 

• Does the organization properly conduct sexual harassment and workplace investigations?

• Does the organization properly weight and balance privacy issues and concerns?

• Are all employees encouraged to report incidents of sexual harassment; and are all supervisors and managers required to take action and report incidents?
